Instructions
Prepare Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add chicken and sear until golden on both sides and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Make Sauce: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add sun-dried tomatoes and chicken broth, bringing to a simmer. Reduce the heat, stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese, and simmer until the sauce thickens.
Add Spinach: Add fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring until it wilts.
Combine: Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the breasts. Cook for 2-3 minutes to reheat the chicken and infuse it with the creamy sauce.
Serve: Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve the chicken hot, garnished with extra Parmesan or fresh herbs if desired.
